My courtyard shelter

Chapter 28 Abnormal Climate

Since the convenience store closed, Dad Xu seemed to have lost his soul. He was not able to do anything well and was often in a daze. Read

Seeing this, Xu Dong quickly found some good wood and a full set of carpenter tools, and asked the old man to make small toys and slides for his grandchildren.

Dad Xu did carpentry work for a few days before he came to his senses and smiled more.

……

On March 7, the street where the courtyard was located resumed water and electricity supply almost at the same time, and the water supply truck that had appeared for only a few days disappeared again.

As for the network, it is estimated that we will have to wait for a while.

On March 12, major colleges and universities in Yanjing announced the start of school one after another. After nearly three months of crazy play, the Coco sisters finally had to carry their schoolbags to school.

The courtyard suddenly became much quieter.

The next morning, the square dance group of Xu Ma was preparing to hold a tea party, and Wang Xiujuan came to inform them personally.

After all, everyone was busy during this period, and they hadn't gathered together for two or three months. This time, they discussed the matter of resuming square dance.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Ma took Yang Lina out. Xu Ma held Dabao in her arms, and Yang Lina held Erbao in her arms.

Yang Lina was forced out by Xu Ma this time. Seeing that her daughter-in-law always stayed at home, Xu Ma wanted to take her with her and let her integrate into this neighborhood as soon as possible.

The venue of the tea party was in the elderly activity center of the Champs Elysees community next door. When Xu Ma arrived, the place was almost full.

There was a noisy chatter at the scene, which made Yang Lina feel like she was back in school.

Wang Xiujuan personally went forward to greet her. After all, she still owed her a favor because of the milk powder incident!

"Lao Zhang, you're here! Oh, Nana is here too. If I remember correctly, this is your first time here, right?"

Mrs. Xu nodded and said, "Keke and the others are in school. There's nothing to do at home, so I brought her out to get some fresh air."

"Hello, Aunt Wang!" Yang Lina greeted.

"Welcome, welcome. Come visit us often when you have time!"

"Sure." Yang Lina said politely.

Wang Xiujuan quickly turned her attention to the child, "I haven't seen you for a while. You've grown up so much. Is this Dabao?"

"No, this is Erbao. The one in my mother's arms is Dabao." Yang Lina corrected.

"Why don't you bring Xiaobao out with you?"

Mrs. Xu explained, "Xiaobao just got better from a cold a while ago. It was too hot outside, so I didn't bring him out."

"Indeed, the temperature has been weird recently. It's so hot during the day, but so cold at night. Many people have caught a cold." Wang Xiujuan agreed.

"That's right!" Aunt Xu said with emotion: "My family now turns on the air conditioner during the day and the heater at night. I have never seen such a strange thing in my life."

"I heard that the climate in Xinzhou is like this. Well, I won't say much. I still have to greet other people here. You can find a place to sit."

Wang Xiujuan left after she finished speaking. After all, as the head of the dance troupe and the initiator of the tea party, she had too many trivial matters.

Aunt Xu took Yang Lina and found three dance friends who had a good relationship with each other. There were naturally various small circles in the square dance troupe.

"Lao Zhang, sit here. Is this your daughter-in-law?"

"Yes!"

Mother Xu then introduced several people to Yang Lina. The one wearing yellow clothes was Aunt Liu; the one wearing glasses was Aunt Sun, a retired teacher; and the one wearing a printed top was Aunt Qian.

The group teased the children for a while, then talked about family matters, and soon talked about the abnormal weather again.

"Have you heard? The abnormal climate this time is all caused by the previous solar flare." Aunt Qian said mysteriously.

"Where did you hear that?"

Xu Ma expressed doubt. The world is not peaceful now, and rumors are flying everywhere, but the current climate is indeed too abnormal.

"This is true. My nephew-in-law teaches geography in college. According to his speculation, it seems that the atmosphere has been destroyed, and the earth is about to end."

"Puh... What nonsense are you talking about? The end of the world, why don't you say that the earth is about to explode?"

Xu Ma looked disdainful. There are five children in the family, and the good days have just begun. She can't stand such words.

Hearing this, Aunt Liu couldn't hold back and joined the conversation:

"I heard that the solar flare brought some kind of mysterious power, and the earth will soon be revived..."

Yang Lina couldn't help but "puff" and teased: "Aunt Liu, your grandson told you this, he has read too many novels."

Aunt Liu smiled embarrassedly:

"I was wondering why this little bastard's eyes are always red recently. It turns out that he stayed up late to read novels. Just wait and see how I deal with him when I get back."

At this time, Aunt Sun also spoke up, with a serious face: "This time the weather is abnormal, you all should not take it lightly, anyway, something big is going to happen."

"What do you mean?" Aunt Xu asked hurriedly.

Aunt Sun looked around subconsciously, and then whispered:

"I have a relative who is the director of a grain warehouse. According to him, the authorities are conducting a strict inspection of grain warehouses across the country recently, and they are also tracking all the outbound records in the past month."

After several people digested the news, Aunt Sun continued to analyze: "Think about it, if nothing big happened, is it necessary for the authorities to make such a big scene?"

The others at the same table finally panicked, including Yang Lina.

"Think again, has it rained in Yanjing since the Chinese New Year?"

"There is less rain in Yanjing in winter. Is it any wonder?" Aunt Liu, as an old Yanjing native, has the best say.

Aunt Sun glanced at the other party and asked: "It's only March, and the temperature today has almost exceeded 30 degrees. How do you say this?"

"this……"

Aunt Liu was speechless. She had spent most of her life in Yanjing and had never encountered such horrible weather.

Xu's mother was anxious and said nervously: "Is the end of the world really going to happen?"

Aunt Sun shook her head, "That's not the case, but this year is definitely not going to be good. It's either a flood or a drought. It's best to stock up on more food at home."

Xu Ma breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she owns a store. Although the convenience store is temporarily closed, there is still a lot of rice left.

"Lao Zhang, I remember your family owns a convenience store. Do you still sell rice there?" Aunt Sun asked seemingly unintentionally.

Recently, large supermarkets in urban areas have implemented purchase restrictions. It is basically impossible to buy rice by the bag as before.

"There is still some rice. If you want it, can I get you two bags?"

Although she was reluctant, they were all acquaintances after all, and it was hard for Xu Ma to refuse.

"That's a good relationship. I'll go to your house to get it later."

Aunt Sun smiled with satisfaction, and it was not in vain that she wasted so much time, her goal was finally achieved.

Aunt Liu reacted immediately: "Old Zhang, can you leave two bags for me too?"

Aunt Qian naturally had the same request.

Xu Ma was careful and said, "Okay, two bags per person, no more."

Seeing the doubtful looks in the three people's eyes, Xu's mother explained: "To tell you the truth, my convenience store was issued a rectification notice by the Health Bureau some time ago and has been closed. There is not much rice in the store now."

"Ah...is there still such a thing?"

"I didn't want to say anything at first. It's all a family scandal and the store's hygiene was not done well."

Xu Ma then told the story of the dead mouse in detail.

"Perhaps my colleagues saw that your business was good and deliberately framed you."

"What bad luck!"

"Be careful next time!"
